This sounds like it is something for the parents to decide what is best for
their children, if anybody wants to tell other parents how to raise their children then they had better be prepared to alow those other parents to tell them how to raise their own children.
Personally, we wouldn't use the system, I believe we had a more effective way of doing it, If our children did anything that raised the cost of Auto insurance coverage of them, getting a ticket, or being resposible for a wreak, they paid the increased Auto insurance coverage. That meant they had to get out and get a job to come up with the money to cover the increased costs do to their negligence(sp?) It tought them responsiblity and that each of us must pay for the consequences of our actions. But, then again I also believe embrassement)sp?) is an effective form of dislipline, if our daughters ever missed a curfew(sp?) I would drive them to school for a week and walk them into home room in my bath robe and slippers. Our daughter never once missed a curfew. They knew Dad wasn't going to be embrassed by wearing his bath robe and slippers in front of a bunch of high school pukes, but they sure as "Hale" were going to be.
